COACHING
Players get an insight into playing basketball at a senior level. Coaches share their experiences of the professional and US College game, giving players an understanding of what it takes to make the step up. Players are challenged with detailed technical drills and position-specific training to elevate their on-court performance. With an additional focus on improving the physical attributes and mental toughness to succeed at the top, players get a true all-round pro basketball experience.
Eric Boateng provides an inspirational insight into a basketball journey many students may like to replicate. From studying and playing at an NCAA Division 1 school in the USA, to his experience playing with NBA teams and in a home Olympic Games in 2012.
RESULTS: Players better understand their game and consider how to continue their career beyond junior level, either at university or senior level. As well as their progress on-court, players leave with new friends from around the world and develop maturity, confidence, and an understanding of new cultures.
Eric Boateng - basketball director
Eric has extensive experience at a professional level. After playing for 4 years at the highest level of US college basketball on a scholarship to an NCAA Division 1 university Eric took part in the 2010 NBA draft before joining the New York Knicks for the NBA Summer League and going on to play professionally in the second tier of the NBA.

Eric trains, oversees and supports the head coach at each venue, bringing his extensive knowledge of the pro game to the camp.
English
Classes focus on sport, engaging students’ passion for the subject to promote language learning in a fun and interactive environment. Using the CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) model of English, qualified teachers infuse language learning into lively and active classes where sports-based projects, discussions and activities take centre stage. Teachers guide students to improve their verbal communication skills while discussing legendary players, interviewing coaches, or writing and speaking their own commentary. Learning is supported by English teachers living on-site and English is spoken at all times throughout the camp, creating an immersive learning environment.
